Storing Value of a Draggable item as a global variable within different tabs in jQuery

I have 3 tabs. On tab # 2 I have two draggable items and one droppable. My two draggable items are "good" or "bad". On tab 3 I have a button and a textarea. Upon the click of the button it will determine if you feel good or bad. What I want to achieve is: when I am on tab #2 and I drag an item into the drop area, lets say I drag and drop the "good" item, I then tab over to tab # 3 and click the button which asks " how do you feel", since I dragged and dropped the "good", when I click the "how do you feel button" it will display "good" within the text area on tab #3. Likewise, if on tab 2 I drag and drop the BAD and then tab over to tab#3 and click the "how do you feel button" then it will display as "bad" inside the textarea. Please help!! Thank you.
